I’ve been holding on to news of a good thing (actually, it’s more than a good thing; it’s a fantastically wonderful opportunity) for a couple of months now and it’s been so hard not to share! I finally can so I’m going to shout it over the rooftops!

Yay!!!

I’ve been invited to be a KEYNOTE presenter at the Diversity in Parenting conference! And I said YES!! YAY!! I’m so thrilled and so honored! 

First of all, this is the kind of conference that someone like me dreams of attending, let alone applying to speak at or well, being invited to be one of very few keynote presenters.

 At this conference, there is real diversity of presenters. Check out the pictures of us presenters below. I love all the faces! Yippee!!

Here’s the rundown of the Diversity in Parenting conference according to conference organizers:

●      It’s aimed at mental health and parenting professionals who work with parents and their families!

●      There are over 40 speakers of diverse backgrounds and identities (including me! Yay!) presenting on topics that families in today’s world are dealing with!

●      The conference will be held **September 13-14th, 2019** in sunny Southern California (Anaheim, CA to be exact)!

●      Over 200 professionals are scheduled to attend this revolutionary conference to grow, learn, network, and embrace diversity in their professional lives!

●      Chances to network with local and national companies who work with mental health and parenting professionals in the exhibit hall will be available during the whole event!
